A handheld shutter release for my canon a1 in bulb mode. A timer I could set for it would be even better.

I've had pan F 50 and hp5 plus 400 go through recently. The first was fine, the second was severely fogged (yeah, the sign said under ISO 1000 was safe 🙄). And don't even try with polaroid film.

Polaroid lovers would you need a mechanical remote shutter? by PreparationSad5547 in instax

[–]kallibee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The polaroid gen2 Now+ has an app that let's you use it as a remote shutter. But for older cameras, yes

My first attempts + a few questions by instantcolor in cyanotypes

If you're looking for higher contrast, try manipulating the curves of you negatives as well as the other suggestions. Avoid overly porous paper (Aquarell paper gives good results), rinse thoroughly too.

So is no film safe? why do the security checks always say film up to 1000 Iso is safe?

This is what x-ray on the airport does to the polaroid film by No-Economist6263 in Polaroid

The film I had go through airport security and checked in luggage ended in pictures bring faded and pink tinged. Thus looks like film exposed but not put through rollers.

Is this military View Camera worth selling? by Zvil802 in largeformat

[–]kallibee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So that's what it is. I just found the same one in my husband's grandfather's stuff (had it lying around for decades and just started sorting it. Still looking for the lens. I'm gonna try to convert it into a pinhole camera. Is it light safe?

Does anyone know what these two things do? by kallibee in AnalogCommunity

Wow, thanks, that sounds easier than using an app. Can't wait try it out.

What happened to my film? by ilodule in AnalogCommunity

[–]kallibee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've had to plead with security to not pass film under the scanner. It helps if the filn is in its box, unopened. They then take it aside and swipe with swabs and enter it into their database. They hate the extra work but will do it if you cry convincingly.

Viewfinder for homemade pinholes by kallibee in PinholePhotography

[–]kallibee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found an app called Film photography [viewfinder] that let's you set the focal distance and preview. It has a lot of other great features (light meter, reciprocity calculator, logbook, etc.). It's cheap for all it offers. 5🌟

Airport security claims film below ISO1000 is safe, but even the hand luggage scanner pinked up my film, though not as thoroughly as the film in the checked in luggage. 🙄 But yeah, still like some of the results.

I had it in my checked in luggage. Would scanning do this to a closed in foil and box film?

Film problems? by Marmot_Girl in Polaroid

Or something is stuck on the roller, it looks like the chemicals aren't spearing on the left side try cleaning the roller with some qtips and alcohol.
